Rep Farming is Fun!

I’ve been promising this post all week and am finally getting to it. Boss kills kinda take precedence, sorry Arv!

I was puttering around last weekend doing whatever, archaeology I think, when Lyss says in guild chat that she has one of the NPCs in her Protectors of Hyjal group that is needed for the achievement. It was one that Arv and I both needed, so she invited us and summoned us out there. Once we’d waved, she dropped group and we hung around looking for the last one we needed … and of course any time the two of us hang out, shenanigans usually occurs. Like, him giving me rides on his Vial of the Sands and then dropping me. He did somehow manage to kill me, even though it’s supposed to give you a parachute. But that’s ok, because the parachute worked on the second try, and he managed to kill himself instead. Good times.

Well we’re kinda standing around doing nothing after that, so he’s like ‘Wanna do some BC heroics?’ Now, anyone who’s been around the blog for a bit knows that I like to farm rep. I had actually already been to Blood Furnace and MgT earlier that day. Heck, it’s even the blog title! Do you *need* two paladins to clear any of this stuff? lol. Not hardly. You didn’t need two of them at 80, let alone now. But of course, rep farming is *always* more fun when there are two of you. Farming rep with Hartbane is one of my fondest memories from my Wrath days.

First we headed out to Netherstorm to hit up those instances. I’m travelling in style, not even having to figure out where to go … but I don’t go afk just in case some brat decides to drop me again.

We also hit up all the dungeons at Auchindoun … well, minus Sethekk Halls. We didn’t need the achievement for that one; Arv’s already got Anzu, and Van has been farming for it. Here is one of the great benefits of having two paladins instead of just one …

I actually came *very* close to killing him there. He has forbearance because he had to use LoH. ^.^

Then in Shadow Labs AGAIN I got mind controlled. Good times.

Never did manage to kill him though. We went back to the Netherstorm instances last night and I got MC’d at the end of Arcatraz. Maybe if I gem and enchant my ret gear …

Anyway, after that we headed out to the Caverns of Time. Can’t say I’m thrilled with Van’s human disguise but hey .. at least he got hair! Arv’s is definitely hawt.

We also did … hm. Shattered Halls. And then the NEXT day, we did all of the Coilfang Reservoir dungeons to finish off Outland Dungeon Hero for Van. And did MgT to get Outland Dungeon Hero for Arv. And then last night, we hit up Netherstorm again, and Arv finished off his Sha’tar rep and his 30 Exalted Reputations achievement. Then we did MgT again.

So what happens AFTER the dungeon running is over?

Maybe Arv didn’t know this … but I’m betting he probably did and is just exploiting it … if you get naked (or do anything remotely worthy of screenshotting) when I am around, there is a 99% chance that it will get posted to the blog.

Ok, I guess the final shot is proof that he KNEW he was getting screenshotted. This one makes me want to crank up some Rihanna “S&M” ^.^

Ok, that was worth waiting until Friday for, especially with the fresh pics from last night. 😉

Dropping peeps off my mounts is fun! When I first bought my traveler’s mount, I summoned Stunnah to Dal to come try it out. Then I proceeded to try to jump off the side of the landing where the flight point is located and like a noob, realized my mammoth had no ups. Stunnah obviously knew what I was trying to do, but like a true champ, he didn’t dismount and he even told me to try “using the sewers”. So anyways, I ran out the sewers, bubbled to the ground safely, Stunnah took one for the team and died with a splat and I laughed like I’ve never laughed before. Good times.
